Man Charged With 2008 Shooting

NEW HAVEN — Surveillance video from Nikita Lounge on Crown Street helped police identify and arrest a suspect in a shooting there in May 2008, police said.

Chaz Gulley, 25, who was in custody on unrelated charges, was charged Tuesday with first-degree assault, criminal attempt to commit first-degree robbery, criminal attempt to commit second-degree larceny and unlawful discharge of a firearm.

"We had a lot of video on this whole thing, and we had to have the video enhanced," said police spokesman Joe Avery.

Gulley followed a man into the bar bathroom. There was a dispute and Gully shot the man in the buttocks, Avery said.
